asyncio.get_event_loop() became deprecated in python3.10. (see https://github.com/python/cpython/issues/83710)
```
.../electrum/electrum/daemon.py:470: DeprecationWarning: There is no current event loop
self.asyncio_loop = asyncio.get_event_loop()
.../electrum/electrum/network.py:276: DeprecationWarning: There is no current event loop
self.asyncio_loop = asyncio.get_event_loop()
```
Also, according to that thread, "set_event_loop() [... is] not deprecated by oversight".
So, we stop using get_event_loop() and set_event_loop() in our own code.
Note that libraries we use (such as the stdlib for python <3.10), might call get_event_loop,
which then relies on us having called set_event_loop e.g. for the GUI thread. To work around
this, a custom event loop policy providing a get_event_loop implementation is used.
Previously, we have been using a single asyncio event loop, created with
util.create_and_start_event_loop, and code in many places got a reference to this loop
using asyncio.get_event_loop().
Now, we still use a single asyncio event loop, but it is now stored as a global in
util._asyncio_event_loop (access with util.get_asyncio_loop()).
I believe these changes also fix https://github.com/spesmilo/electrum/issues/5376
See testcase:
- imported wallet with addr1 and addr2
- three txs: tx1 funds addr1, tx2 funds addr2, tx3 spends all
- if we rm addr1 from the wallet,
- previously both tx1 and tx3 was removed (as tx3 is a child of tx1)
- now only tx1 is removed (tx3 still relates to the wallet via addr2)

Imported wallets used to send change back to the "from address".
We keep this behaviour as default.
There has already been an option "Use change addresses" (exposed in GUI),
ignored so far by imported wallets (was only used by HD wallets).
With this change, imported wallets no longer ignore that option, and if set,
they will send change to a random unused imported address, instead of back to "from address".
If all addresses are used, it falls back to sending change back to the "from address".

- Rename bump_fee "methods" to "strategies".
- Refactor strategies so that bump_fee can use any subset of them in any permutation.
- Adds a new strategy which decreases the payment outputs (instead of change).
Previously, if bump_fee decided to add new inputs to the tx, they would
have a different sequence number than the existing inputs. This was
unintentional.
When replacing non-segwit tx, bump_fee in some circumstances created
a tx that tried to spend from the tx-to-be-replaced. There is
explicit logic to avoid this but it only worked for segwit txs.
The change in transaction.py is a no-op, just tried to make it clearer
that the scriptSigs, witnesses are being reset by from_tx().
There are three export options for exporting a PSBT.
The default option previously only put derivation path suffixes for pubkeys
(paths relative to the intermediate xpub), now it puts the full path
(if is known by the keystore).
The "export for hardware device; include xpubs" option works same as before:
it puts both full paths and also global xpubs into the PSBT.
Hence the difference between the default option and the "include xpubs" option
is now only that the latter puts global xpubs into the PSBT.
This change is largely made for user-convenient in mind.
Now exporting a PSBT should be less error-prone: particularly for the
single-signer coldcard with sdcard usage, the default option will now work.

Previously e.g. bip32 derivation info was missing for change outputs in partial tx returned by bump_fee.
This was not exposed to users as the GUI TxDialog calls `tx.add_info_from_wallet(self.wallet)`.

the difference for each tx here is that
- the old ones had witness utxo but not utxo
- the new ones have utxo but not witness utxo
note: tests needed changing due to behavioural change in wallet.get_receiving_address()
Previously wallet.get_receiving_address used wallet.db.get_addr_history,
now it (indirectly) uses wallet.get_address_history, which now also considers local txns.
note: low R grinding would not have to be duplicated if we trusted the caller
to have done it already (as is the case with the classes in ecc.py), and if
we propagated the choice of "random_k" as part of the nonce_function passed
to libsecp256k1 (which is not currently done)
The few other cases that used SimpleConfig.get_instance() now
either get passed a config instance, or they try to get a reference
to something else that has a reference to a config.
(see lnsweep, qt/qrcodewidget, qt/qrtextedit)
There are now two internal strategies to bump the fee of a txn.
bump fee method 1: keep all inputs, keep all not is_mine outputs,
allow adding new inputs
bump fee method 2: keep all inputs, no new inputs are added,
allow decreasing and removing outputs (change is decreased first)
Method 2 is less "safe" as it might end up decreasing e.g. a payment to a merchant;
but e.g. if the user has sent "Max" previously, this is the only way to RBF.
We try method 1 first, and fail-over to method 2.
Previous versions always used method 2.
